Accreditation is a program that promotes safe, high quality patient care, while measuring the performance of the organization providing health care services in an ambulatory setting.

AAAHC accreditation means that the Tulalip Health System will participate in on-going self-evaluation, peer review and education to continuously improve its care and services. In addition, commit to a thorough, on-site survey by AAAHC surveyors, who are themselves, health care professionals, at least every three years.
